On hiatus:
Dear friends, listeners, and anyone that may have
accidentally come across this site,
After
nearly thirty weeks of fun, JB Radio will be taking a break until further
notice. Some might even use the word “hiatus”.
Regardless, the show will be wrapped in bubble paper, placed in a cardboard
box, taped securely shut, and labeled “studio”, and be stored accordingly. This
is not meant to be a sad, pitiful, “feel bad” type of letter.
Although
it’s only a one-hour a week show, a lot of work is put into it. From arranging
interviews, website/social media updates, and fan mail, the time adds up. (I
made up the fan mail part.) Rob and JB both have full-time jobs AND part-time
jobs on top of other adult responsibilities. Spare time is especially rare during
the summer with both guys djing weddings & other events, and summer
concerts and festivals. Aside from time availability issues, there have been numerous
technical issues as of late. Let’s face it, Comcast Internet is unreliable.
This Internet issue effects the live stream as well as phone interviews. Rather
than pre-recording the show, JB Radio will be off air. At this time it is best
to focus on improving the technical issues first and then get the show back on
the air after. For two weeks in a row there was technical work being done
during live shows, which causes the hosts to lose focus and quite frankly makes
the show sound like crap and a waste of time.
When will
the show return? There isn’t an answer for that at this time. Although Rob and
JB would love to get it going immediately it just isn’t possible. When the show
does return, it’ll be better than ever. That last sentence may have been a
stretch. The show will still be amusing and more. Don’t kick us off Facebook and Twitter just yet, we’ll still
update from time to time. Also, check out JB on TOUT!
Sincerely,
The
guy typing this message.
